Friday

Yeah, I'm pimpin' a lot of stuff lately for the holidays. So shoot me. At least you're not seeing any of those $150 guitar packs here-- y'know the cheap guitar with the mini amp, gig bag, tuner, cord, strap, picks and a pack of Skittles. And that's the hottest selling "music gear" out there right now!

But not here folks. I'm genuinely trying to find a few cool and interesting things for guitar people. Today, let's look at silver.

Remember that vintage coins don't really have much "collectible" value unless they're in mint condition-- yeah, that's where the term mint comes from. Everything that's been in circulation, even though it may be old and pure silver, ain't been mint since it left the mint. So, old coins with wear and tear may as well become guitar picks and serve a finer purpose. Besides, we gotta find some new uses for old American money anyway. The current stuff doesn't even make good guitar picks. Are you in the holiday mood yet?

eBay seller giantguitars is the maker of MOJO PICKS, produced from pre-1964 US silver coins, as well as few PESO picks. After 1964, American silver coins switched from 90% silver to nickel clad copper. So basically, all Mojo Picks are at least 90% silver.
